Today's song is...
Women and Men
So much love for this song. I think this is my second favorite off of Flood (after Birdhouse). I will never get tired of listening to Linnell sing "meee-eeee-eeee-n". That is my favorite part. Such a great vocal. I could listening to that forever. More please!

I've always loved the 7/4, 6/4 time of the song. This is a track from Flood I love very much.
ReplyDeleteLyric-subject-wise, The Decemberists' "Sons and Daughters" is very similar. But I think I like "Women and Men" more. :3
I love this song, and I love what you said about it! :) I also agree with Erin's "Sons And Daughters" comparison, though I'd never thought about that before. Interesting! (I love that song as well. I don't think I could say I like one over the other, really, because I love them in different ways. Though they're comparable, they're not comparable in that sense to me, if that makes ANY sense at all..)
ReplyDeleteI also LOVE the "meee-eeee-eeee-n" part! When I first purchased Flood, I would listen to it in the car all the time (which is where I listen to music the majority of the time anyway) and every time this song would play I would laugh out loud, a LOT. XD I'm not even really sure why. Just something about the odd, simple topic, and Linnell's vocals, especially the "men" part, was highly amusing to me. I still love it, and I still find it amusing, but for some reason I don't laugh out loud at it every time now. It just makes me giddy. :)
